Writing

Our writing lesson today is to write a description of a character from a film or book. Choose a character that you know well and would be able to write in a lot of detail about. Think of adjectives to describe their appearance (what they look like), unique traits (what makes them special) where they live and anything else that you can think of that is interesting.

This lesson is in two parts.

Part 1

First you must plan your writing using the planning sheet as a guide to help you. Please use your jotter / paper / notebook for planning. Take notes for each part of your writing, write down good adjectives, interesting phrases and words you would like to use.

Remember when you are writing a description you need to structure your work. You need to include: a title, introduction , characteristics of your character and an evaluation.

Your planning sheet can be found below.
